Seamless Transition, Achievement Continues
F rom the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri where the 34th Administration took shape under “Brother to Brother: Breaking Barriers, Building Bridges” to being “Informed, Involved and Invested” as the 35th Administration has taken the wheel in Tampa, Florida under the leadership of Grand Polemarch Jimmy McMikle. During the 86th Grand Chapter Meeting, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., has undergone a seamless transition and achievement continues. When you think of the state of governments worldwide, seamless transitions between administrations cannot be taken as a given, as they once were. In Kappa Alpha Psi® style, the transition was seamless. This issue focuses on the Grand Chapter Meeting that was, the community and partnerships that made it possible and a look ahead to the 35th Administra- tion’s implementation of its theme.

Williams (Jacksonville (FL) AL 2013) and Kevin Sellers (Zeta Eta 1987). Chapter news and most individual accomplishments should be featured in Province newsletters, with the Journal being reserved for the most significant ones. Don’t hesitate to get
in touch with your province reporters ( see the list of Province Reporters on the opposite page ). We look forward to bringing you news and information in this revital- ized approach to capturing the living history and achievement of our frater- nity under the 35th Administration. Yours in the Bond,
Cleveland Ferguson III, Esq. Editor, The Kappa Alpha Psi Journal
